    The concept of PINs is defined in the introductory chapter and chapter 5 of the "Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry: IUPAC Recommendations and Preferred Names 2013" (freely accessible), [4] which replace two former publications: the "Nomenclature of Organic Chemistry", 1979 (the Blue Book) and "A Guide to IUPAC Nomenclature of Organic Compounds ...

  3. List of chemical compounds with unusual names - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_compounds...

    Chemical nomenclature, replete as it is with compounds with very complex names, is a repository for some names that may be considered unusual. A browse through the Physical Constants of Organic Compounds in the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics (a fundamental resource) will reveal not just the whimsical work of chemists, but the sometimes peculiar compound names that occur as the ...

    Names of oxyanions should in general follow the names in Table X of the IUPAC 2005 Red Book. [2] Exceptions can be made if an alternate name is much more common in the literature, e.g. xenate rather than xenonate (don't generalise this to radon though, as it would create an ambiguity between radon and radium).

    Chemistry is the scientific study of the properties and behavior of matter. [1] It is a physical science within the natural sciences that studies the chemical elements that make up matter and compounds made of atoms, molecules and ions: their composition, structure, properties, behavior and the changes they undergo during reactions with other substances.
